FRANCE . The Citizen CAUssiDiEBB . -The ' Democratic ' publishes the following letter , addressed to it from London , on the 24 th ult ., by M . CausHdiere > - « I « ad in your number of the 22 nd : M . CauiSl-Sre has ! it is said , written to the Procureur-General , M . Baroche , that he u on the point of EHrrenaering himself as a prisoner , so as to be ttiei at the same time as his co-accused Hubert . The m-Jit which you thus repeat is completely fake . KI did intend to surrender myself before the ¦ comiaencement of the trial , the character of the candemnaUons of the Hig h Court of Bourges would have confirmed me in my opinion that I acted wisely inwihdrawine . What could I have said ? That I 15 th
was opposed to the manifestation of May , and that I viewed i ts consequences with the deenait grief ; that those who , like M . Buchez . wished to establish the dictatorship , were either men of no capacity or traitors ; that the Montagnanis and the Garde Bepublicaine tne only forces I had at my disposal , were evicted from the Assenj-% ly- that the presence of the oilmen soldiers , whose devcted republicanism was well known to the peop le was sufficient to guaran tee the national mviolabilty ! But ibis is not the question . The candid explanatiens I gave to that same Assembly , as well as to my fellow-citizens , were accepted by 150 , 000 suffrages . This civic crown was not gained either by intrisrneorbv the influence of an elevated position ; the obscure ' citizen was rewarded for having done
his uity ! What it was wished to attack was the Republican of 1 S 30 , who , at Lyons , was the first to arm himself with a musket in defence of onr liberties : it was the Republican of the prosecution of April , the prisoner of Donlkns ; it was the man of February , multiplying himself at all points to promote the insurrection , attacking by voice and gesture that odious monarchy which was crumbling to dust , as much under the public contempt as under the popular force ; it was the magistrate of March 17 th , who prevented a sanguinary collision , and invited his
fellew citizens to march with banners at their head , but without arms , to the Provisional Government , in order to protest their love for the Republic . Add to ail these crimes that of being a Socialist , and you will at once have the word for my sentence to transportation . As I canpet deny one of the acts of which I have here given an analysis , I cannot think of delivering myself up to my enemies , and must submit to proscription , waiting for better times , and protesting my perseverance in and devotion to the principles of social democracy . '
Excited State or Pabis . —Saturdat . —Last night , although there were no election meetings , considerable crowds assembled at the Porte St . Dims , and the agitation was st ill greater than on the previous days . The police agents endeavoured to disperse toe crowds , but without effect . The crowd iras enormous , not only in the Boulevard , bat in all the neig hbouring streets . Large parties struck up the ' Marseillaise * and other revolutionary
airs , and cried a hag let Girondins . At length the Prefect of Police appeared at the head of a strong party of dragoons , and succeeded in dispersing the mob . Several stones were thrown at the police , but no one was injured , , It was remarked that several stones were thrown from the windows of the neighbouring bouses . Besides the crowds assembled at the Porte St . Denis , similar assemblages took ^ lace in other parts of the capital . In the district of Let Hal . ' es there were several crowds .
Sukbat . — The law against tumultuous asseaifc ' ages was posted up in Paris on Saturday . An immense crowd again assembled in the evening on the Boulevards between the Porte St . Denis and Porte St . Martin j at nine o ' clock they were summoned to disperse by the Commissaries of Police , and the City Sergeants made numerous arrests . Arnold the prisoners was a representative of the colonies—a Montagnard—who on being recognised was set at liberty . At half-past ten o ' clock order -was restored , and the crowd dispersed .
Another Account . —A commissary of police , followed by two draws , summoned the crowd to disperse , and as the order was not readily obeyed , a charge of Infantry attempted to clear the streets . This having also failed , recourse wa 3 had to Cavalry , nd the object was at length accomplished . Several persons were arrested and carried to the Prefecture of Police and other prisons for obstructing the military , and refusing to disperse when summoned to do so . A ? a&ng the persons arrested was a member of the National Assembly . His name is not given , but he is said to he one of the representatives for the Colonies . On his being identified he was set at liberty . By eleven o ' clock the streets assumed their ordinary appearance with the exception that strong patrols of National Guards were to be seen talcing their rounds , from lime to time , during the whole nighr .
The ultra-Democratic papers announce , this morning , that the Montagnard members of the Assembly were all last sight in consultation as to what means were to be adopted by them for the protection of tbs ri g hts of the electors against the attacks of the government , but that they have not yet come to a resolution on the subject . They promise that something effectual will speedily be done , but in the meantime they earnestly call upon the people to preserve the public peace , which their enemies would wish them , for their own ends , to violate .
Monday . —Crowds assembled last nig ht , as on the previous nights , at the Forte St . Denis , but there was not the sli g htest appearance of disturbance . A good many troops were on the ground . On Saturday evening the number of persons arrested and carried to the Prefecture of Police was 360 . The Social and Democratic Electoral Committee has issued a notice in which , after stating that' the presence of the agents of the government in an election meeting is an attenfat , ' and that , ' in forcing an entry into the councils of the people , the police have violated the Constitution , ' it declares that ' the peop le have the right of rising to defend themselves , but they are not obliged to chastise provocation at the hour that may suit the provoker . They will choose their day anil their arms . The day has
not arrived ; the people leave to the government the time to reflect ; they do not wish to be accused of preferring the victory of blood to that of the suffrage . ' Illegal , and stained with an indelible vice , a Leg's-, latwe Assembly , named in the silence of the people , would not- be the asembly of a free nation . ' The committse then makes the following announcement : — ' The Socialist and Democratic electoral meetings -will remain suspended . The government is accountable . The Royalists and false Republicans may continue to conspire under the eye of the Commissary of Police : the free citizens will not have a mutilated right . livery man who submits voluntarily to an abuse c ! power , is an accomplice to it . He who disobey ? the delegates of the people is an agent of the seimu , a deserter . He is a traitor to the Repub'ic , and to the cause of Democratic Socialism . '
Excitement ix Lyons . —Letters from Lyons , of the 2 Sia ult ., state that tumultuous meetings had taken place iu that city / or several evenings previous to that day . The authorities at Marseilles have prevented the sailing of a body of volunteers raised in Paris for the service of the Roman Republic . More Pbrsecutiox . —Seventy-six persons have been arrested for having opposed the police in the execution of their duty at the various Socialist Electoral Committees on Monday and Tuesday evenings .
Amongst these are fifteen Who had been transported after the insurrection of June , and subsequently pardoned . An insurgent of June , named Armand , was tried-by court-martial in Paris on Thursday . He was foima guilty , and sentenced to ten years' bard labour . Six persons were arrested at "Vincennes on "Wednesday for having endeavoured to seduce some soldiers in that garrison from their duties ; they were recognised as Socialists , and were committed to p rison to be prosecuted by the Attorney-General . —Times ,
M . Diiehon , editor of 'Le Peuple , ' was sentenced on Saturday by default to two years' imprisonment , and 4 . 000 f . fine . - . The co »; t-inartial condemned Le Colleague , editor of' L'Organuatian da Travail / to twenty-five years * imp risonment , for having taken part in theinsurrectisn of June , and usurped the functions of mayor in the Faubourg St . Antoine . . Most of the individuals implicated in the disturb . ances of Limoges were found guilty by the Court of Assize at Poictiers . Their chief , M . Genty , former delegate n : the Club of Clubs , was sentenced to transportation for life . '
The Forthcoming Elections . —The Socialists of Paris have adopted Jean Baptiste Boichet , sergeant-major of the 7 th Regiment of Light Infantry , and Edmoud Ruttier , sergeant of the 48 th R * g iment of the Line , as two of their candidates for the representauaa of the Seine in the legislative Assembly . - SociAiisT Banquet . —The banquet of Socialist priests look p ' ace on Sunday at the Jardin de la Libefte , Barriere Poisioniere .

Thb War of the Cousins . — The breach between the President and his cousin , Napoleon Buonaparte , is now comp lete . At the end of last week , immediately after the return of the latter from Madrid a violent altercation took p lace between the cousins , the result of which would have been , under ordinary circumstances , an appeal to arms . Such could not , of course , be the . solution , but the breach seems irreparable . Napoleon Buonaparte will pro . bably now throw himself completely into the arms of the Socialists . Perhaps this will make up to the latter for the loss they have sustained in - the secession of the two sons of old Lucien , who are now firm allies of Louis Napoleon . '
GERMANY . BERLIN , April 26 th . —The Ministry has sustained another defeat in the Second Chamoer . The debate on the motion of M . Waldeck , urging the govern , ment to terminate the state of siege , came on for discussion yesterday , and was adjourned till to-day . This morning it was resumed , and closed this evening by the adoption of an amendment moved by M . Unruh , to this effect : — ' The Chamber declares that
the continuance of the state of siege without its consent is illegal , and that the Chamber does hereby withhold its consent to such state of siege . ' This was carried by 184 votes against 139 ; a majority against the Ministry ef forty-five , though many of the Rig ht declined to vote . A second part of the amendment , by which the Chamber pledges itself * to call on the government immediately to terminate the state of siege declared on the 12 th of November last , ' was also carried by 177 votes to 153 .
DISSOLUTION OF THE DIET—DISTURBANCES AT BERLIN . The Berlin journals of the 27 th ult ., bring startling intelligence . The Second Chamber has been dissolved , the first prorogued to an indefinite period . This sudden coup d ' etat spread like wildfire through the town . The Left received the announcement with a shout almost of exultation , whilst the Right benches were silent . The excitement in the city itself assumed a more serious aspect ; knots of men
began to assemble in the principal squares , patrols were called out , blows were exchanged , and some arrests made . At eight o ' clock in the evening , as dusk set in , the crowds in the streets increased , and the peaceably-inclined were startled by the sharp rattle of a volley of musketry on the Domplatz . It was reported that one woman and five men were killed . When the mail left , Berlin had all the appearance of an approaching insurrection . The ' Prussian Official Gazette * contains the following address of the Ministers to the King : —
• to the kings majksty . ' Your Majesty , in convoking bo ' . h chambers by the Royal decree issued on the 26 th of February , was guided by the confidence that their deliberations would tend to promote the welfare of the country by consolidating public order . This-hope has been disappointed by the course upon which the Second Chamber has recently entered by Adopting- resolutions founded on divisions , "vrbich by one or very few votes determined the issue , now for one side of the house , now for the other , so as to leave no doubt the decision was often the work of mere accident . In the discharge of our duty we consider it would be hig hl y injurious to leave the revision of the draft of the constitution of the 5 th of December , and the framing the organic laws connected with it . to be the sport of such accidents .
' We are besides convinced that the Second Cham , ber has not confined itself within the limits of its leg itimate functions . We perceive it exceeding its powers in the resolution of the 21 st inst ., by which the constitution drawn up by the Frankfort National Assembly is declared valid , and again in the resolution of yesterday , by which the continuance of the state of siege , which we consider as indispensable for the preservation of public order and security , is not only declared to be illegal and in contradiction with the 110 th article of the constitution , but its immediate termination is demanded !
• On these grounds , we consider it necessary for the interest of the country that the Second Chamber , according to the 76 th article of the constitution , should be dissolved ; and that the Upper Chamber should be at the same time adjourned . We rely on the hope that these measures will be approved by the majority of the well disposed in the nation with so much the more confidence , because , to our sorrow , we have seen the tribune in the Second Chamber but too often , misused by the declaration of principles calculated to pave the way for the over , throw of the present constitution , and the destruction of all social order .
' While we respectfully present to your Majesty the form of the decree of dissolution for si gna t ure , we reserve the measures required by the 49 th article of the constitution , as the consequences of the dissolution e £ the Chamber , for future execution .

ATTEMPTS TO ERECT BARRICADES . . ( From the ' Times ' of Tueiday . ) . Berlin , April 28 . — Aftsr the departure of the mail last ni ght attempts were made to erect barricades on several points , but failed by the exertions of the citizens and ailitary . On the Petri Platz the soldiers were compelled again to fire , and this morning the casualties of last evening were ascertained to be very numerous . , . .. Detachments ' of cavalry bave bad to be called in to clear the Douhofs Platz several times during the day . Many persons have beea wounded by sabre cuts , but the number is not yet known . No organised resistance has anywhere been attempted by the people , yet great alarm prevails . Many families bave left Berlin during the day ; passing visitors have left almost-without an exception .
Nine o ' clock , p . m . — Patrols of cavalry are keeping the streets that lead to the Douhofs Platz clear .
FURTHER PARTICULARS . The people turned off the gas all along the Leipziger-street , andat the corner where the Charlottoc-strasse crosses it there was an attempt to erect a barricade . In a surprisingly short time it

was raised to a dangerous-looking obstacle , but the interference of some of the citizens sufficed to stop its progress , and it was removed without the interference of the military . The large tubs that stand in the streets filled with water ; and which in Berlin supply ( very imperfectly ) the place of mains and pip es in case of fire , were rolled together ; the planks that cross the deep drains at . all the corners were torn up , and this dismantling process , added to the darkness in the whole street , ' - usually well lit , and exhibiting by night , from its length , a fine perspective , gave everythin g a wild ana desolate look . Another barricade was built at the junction of the Markfargeh" and Leipzi ger streets , and here the pave-_ _ . .. j - j ., ^ ,. M .., ,. ,.
ment was in part torn up . On the approach of a detachment of troops , who gave the signal usual before firing , the people at work on it fled , and it was removed by the soldiers . Another , still more formidable , was raised in the PetrUplatz ; and from here , at half-past ten , I heard three or four shots rapidly fired , though it was not , as reported this morning , a full volley . It was directed at the barricade , in consequence of a shot being fired from it on the advancing troops . In a game cover the sounds would hardly attract attention , but in the streets of a city , in darkness , and amid angry and cursing groups of men , it has a strange effect ,
startling for the moment , but followed b y a strange kind of excitement , which it is easy to understand would soon grow intoan impulse to join in the conflict if it increased . But for the overwhelming force of the garrison , and the preparations . long ago made for such a contingency , there would have been a general rising last night ; but under present circumstances the attempt . would be madness . This the citizens know full well , and last ni ght they did all in their power to prevent a conflict . The points at which the barricades were raised , or half-raised , were soon in possession of the troops , who also appeared at every other point likely to be attacked ; and these movements of . detachments continued till
a late hour . The crowds gradually dispersed . The evening was in every respect precisely like one of those which preceded the fatal 18 th of March . The difference is now , that the mass of the citizens keep aloof , and ths government cannot be taken by surprise ; the danger is from the workmen and unemployed labourers . The feeling among them is the worst possible . They are possessed with the fixed idea that a new law of election is to be decreed , which will deprive them of the suffrage they have had secured them by the last . Revolutionary emissaries are busy among them . ¦ ¦ ¦•¦• •
An outbreak by day is not much apprehended ; it is the evening and night that are dreaded , when the working men are disengaged . They gather in the streets sometimes purposeless , but accident often produces a collision that leads to fttal consequences . Yet it cannot be said that the day has passed over quietly . During the forenoon crowds assembled again on the Donhof-splatz . and at one o ' clock a body of cavalry was ordered to clear it , which it did with as little violence as possible . The people ; however ; returned , and . the manoeuvre had to be repeated
more than once during the afternoon . The process did not improve the temper either of the soldiers or the people , and towards evening the men used their sabres , and many . persons , have been seriously wounded ; but up to the present hour ( eig ht . o ' clock nothing like an organised resistance bad been attempted by the crowd : still the obstinacy with which they return after every repulse is astonishing . It is hoped ( that the movement will riot increase beyond , at ' ; least , the manifestation of last night ; .... - v . . "
. In the meanwhile the effect on trade and business has been moat -, injurious . Many resident families have quitted Berlin during the day ; all strangers , who are not fettered by direct occupation , have left almost without exception ; and some of the hotels on the Linden bave been cleared of their guests in a few houra . To add to the alarm , the little village of Rixdorf , about a mile from Berlin , caught fire at midday , and is nearly destroyed ; the wind bore quantities of light flakes of fire from the . burning houses as far as the city , where they fell in the streets . — Times . The following notice was i « sued at Berlin , at six in the evening , on the 28 th ult : — -
' After the dissolution of the Second Chamber , assemblages of the lower classes of the people took place in the vicinity of the house and in the adjoining streets , when the military were opposed and insulted .

THE KING OF PRUSSIA S DEFINITIVE REFUSAL OF
THE IMPERIAL CROWN . " The ' Prussian Gazsite , ' of the 29 th , publishes , the definitive refusal of the Imperial Crown by the King of Prussia . This document , which is of great length , is addressed to M . Camphausen , the Prussian plenipotentiary to the Central Power . It bears the date of 28 th April , and the signature of Count Brandenburgh . *
THE WAR IN HUNGARY . . It appears that General Bern , before leaving Cronstadt and Hermannstadt , palisaded those two places in a manner that would enable the Szeblers ( the partizansof the Magyars ) to hold out for along time against the Russians , in case the latter should return to Transylvania . It is admitted , even b y some of the Vienna journals , that the above general maintains strict discipline among his troops .
WELDEN DRIVEN OUT OF GKAN BY THK HUNGARIANS . Vienna , April 24 . —The Hungarians have obtained a decisive victory over the main Austrian army corps under \ elden , which has been driven out of Gran , and utterly put to rout . - Steamers from the Upper Danube , come down crowded with wounded ; and all the remaining troops are pouring over to Ofen . Perczelhas entered Bukovar without encountering the least resistance . ' Karlowitz has been bombarded by the Magyars . The hostility of the Hungarian - peasantry adds greatly to the distress of the Austrians , who are badly off for provisions and thinned b y disease . ( From the' Morning Chronicle . ' ) .
The report that the Imperial troops had suffered a defeat in the vicinity of Gran is fully and officially confirmed by the bulletin issued on the 24 th by General Bohiu , the Governor of Vienna . It an . nounces the evacuation of Buda-Pesth by the Imperial troops , and the raising of the siege of Comorn . Worded in a manner to allay the fears of the population of Vienna , it indicates but too plainly that the struggle will be a fierce one , and that-the worst has yet to come . The news says the ' Cologne Gazette , ' of Saturday , 28 th ult ., in an extraordinary supplement ) of a decisive victory gained by the Hungarians is fully confirmed . The excitement at Vienna is extreme .
The Magyars have also proved victorious on Lower Danube . On the 16 th , they bombarded , Catlqwitz , and Precztl has taken quiet possession of Bukovar . , ¦ . The Silesian Gazette ' . ' says : — ' A great battle was fought on the 20 th and 21 st between Gran anil Comorn . Welden commanded the reserve , and occupied the heights near Gran . A great portion of the Imperialists , including the brigades " of Jablondwski
and Simunich , were drawn up in line of battle on the open ground between Gran and Comorn . ' The Hungarians attacked the Imperialists on all sides with such " . impetuo 8 ity that the latter were Boon thrown into confusion . In despite of the bravery of his men , Welden was compelled ^ to retreat-Besides a severe loss in killed and wounded , the Imperialists lost twenty pieces of artillery and 2 , 000 prisoners , The immediate result of the , battle , wag the raising of the , siege of Comorn . ' . ' , ' / . ;
Letters from Transylvania state that Bern has entered Wallachia , and defeated a Russian , division advancing to the assistance of Austria . ; -r . Kossuth convoked the Hungarian Diet to meet at Pesth on the 24 th of April . To the astonishment of many he has kept his word . : ; ''¦ - ., ¦ ,. (? rom the ' Dail y News . ' ) If the Magyars are able to send a detachment of their army to Vienna the Germans will in all likelihood embrace the opportunity to rise and assert their nationality . All Poles and Hungarians , of all ages and sexes , have been ordered to quit Vienna ; but this is a work of supererogation : the next outbreak will be occasioned by German discontent .
On the night of the 22 nd orders were received to de > patchall the regular troops stationed in Yiennain the direction of Presburg ; but the commandant did not deem it safetopart with the force which enable

him to keep up the state of liege , and the orders were disregarded . Government is pressing soldiers instead of rel y ing upon the regular conscription . In a village near Vienna boys of fifteen ^ and . ^ ixteen vears have been fowed to join the . ranks . W elden has offered " every Magyar who deserts _ «« .: florins , and twenty if he brings his horse - withhtm ; .

Georgey has crossed to the right bank of the Daoube , before the face of the Imperialist troops , and entered Comorn . ' Count Zichy , who armed at Vienna on the evening of the 24 th inst ., was present when , at . the ., head of only 600 hussars . Georgey performed this exploit . General Schhek , with 6 , 000 men . is at Buda . The Austrian head-quarters are . it is said , at ( Edenburg . Jellacbich is gone to Southern Hungary , to join Ruckowina , Puchner , and the Servians , and to defend the frontiers . pf his
own country . > t The ' Breslau Zeitung' contains the following imp ortant intelligence : — ' I hasten to inform you , that in consequence of the total defeat of the Imperial army between Gran and the Danube , when 12 , 000 Austrians fell under the swords and baronets of the Hungarians , and , on their retreat , fell a prey to the waves , General Welden is compelled to ah an immediate evacuation of Pe 3 th and Ofen . The greatest disorder has prevailed the whole day . In a placard Welden calls upon the two great cities to grant a perfectly safe relre&t to the r 6 mnant » of the Imperial army . Report says that Kossuth , by desire of the city , has granted the Imperialists an armistice of forty-eig ht hours for evacuating Pesth and Ofen . The Hungarians are to make their entry to-morrow , The greatest joy prevails there .
Letters from Pesth , of the 22 nd ult ., confirm the news of the evacution of that city by the Imperialists . The brigades of Schlick and Csovich had just left it . The Ban was still on the field of Rakos , but was expected at Pesth . It is doubtful whether he has passed through that city to follow the rest of the army , or embarked on tbe Danube to carry on operations in the comitats of the south . It also appears that , up to the 23 rd , the Imperialists were still in possession of Buda . The same letters add that at Pesth the people were displaying , in sight it may be said of t he Imperialists , the Hungarian cockade and colours . The streets presented the appearance of a show of flowers and garlands . An illumination was preparing . The orthodox were hurrying away to Vienna . Presburg is being put in a state of defence with the greatest haste . Bern has not gone in the direction - of Wallachia , as it was said , but has
marched to Temeswar . • By later intelligence we learn that the Hungarians have obtained posses « on of the island of Schutt ( on the Danube )/ and that they have cut off the retreat of-thft Imperialist array . The Austrian Commandeririidhiefs'headquarters were atRaab , but beyond | 1 j | s 3 athing , ^' kn p wn . at Vienna of the respective positions ' W i the' contending armies . According : to the last aflvices from . Cfacow , the vanguard of the Russian army , composed of Cossacks , had already
entered that city . It was riot , ' however , supposed that these Cossacks would come "to Vienna , but it was generally thought they would at'ones proceed to Upper Hungary . ' . • •; WURTEMlfeRG . —The King of Wurtemburg has at last yielded to the tears and supplications of his queen ( after having long held out against his nvnisters , his legislature , and bis people in general ) , and has fully and without any reservation acknow . l d ged the validity of the constitution agreed to in Frankfort . , - ; - .

VIENNA ANfl PO&AND J , The ' Times' correspendent , writing from Vienna , says . — 'There is a certain indescribable something going on ; the groupings in the streets , the adventurous-looking Teutonic hats , slouched over most suspicious faces sham quarrels' for the purpose of attracting a mob—these are symptoms which portend mischief . There is nothing firm—nothing consolidated—inour position , and we rise in the morning with an uneasy feeling lest all should be chaos before sunset . '
It is stated in a Posea correspondence ( under date April 19 ) in the ' Oberpostants Zeitung' of Frankfort , that the Poles in the king dom of Poland are preparing . for a new contest , and that large quantities of arms are secretly distributed amongst them . Meantime , Russian troops are pouring into Poland , and strong garrisons are stationed in all the large towns . " .
DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES . The town of Holding has been' taken by the Schleswi g-Holstein troops after a smart resistance on the part of the Danish garrison . Fi g hting continued for many hours in the streets before the town was evacuated by the Danes . On the 19 th of April the headquarters of General Bonin were advanced from Haderjleben to Christianfeld . The out * posts of the two armies came into collision between Woebild and Holding . A letter from Altona of the 23 d , gives the following account of the affair : —

INDIA . SURRENDER OF THE SIKH CHIEFSFLIGHT OF DOST MAHOMED TO THE KHYBER . Bombay , April 3 . —General Sir-W . R . Gilbert , with his fine force , consisting of 15 , 000 raen , with some forty guns , crossed the five or six streams of the Jhelum early in March " with very slight loss , and pushed on for Rhotas ; described as an interesting old'hill fortress , seven or eight miles in circumference ,, and surrounded by walls some' thirty feet thick . ' This place , being old and' dilapidated , had onl y been temporarily occupied by the Sikhs ; and on Gilbert ' s arrival he found , as a matter of course ,
that every seul had evacuated it . He therefore ontmued his progress , and ' succeeded without diffi culty in seizing the Bukrealah Pass , beyond Rhoats . where it was at one time thought the Sikhs would make a stand . At any rate ; Shere Singh " and his father appear soon to have ' become convinced that further opposition was hopeless ; At first they pleaded for a guarantee of their lives ; but having been told that an unconditional surrender- alone would be accepted , intimated their consent to submit unreservedl y , with all their ? followers , and to give up the whole of their guns . On the 7 th of March , Khan Singh Majetua , with 500 men and three guns , arrived in camp , and surrendered . Next day Mrs . Lawrence and her children and servants , with Lieutenants ' Bowie and Herbert , and all the
rest of the prisoners made their appearance . Shere Singh himself came in towards evening , but as certain arrangements had to . he made for the delivering up of . the advance , he was allowed to return to his own camp to do what was needful . It was now reported that the Sikhs had altered their minds , and that whatever that single night might do , they were determined to strike a last blow for liberty ! This appears to have induced General Gilbert to continue -his march , fully prepared for an encounter . On the 14 th Sirdars Chuttur Singh and Shere Singh , with eleven other chiefs of note , arrived in General Gilbert ' s camp , and gave up their swordsi Forty-one pieces of artillery were also surrendered , and 16 , 000 Sikhs laid down their arms ; each man being allowed to retain his horse , aad receiving a rupee as subsistence monev . . .

m THE TES" HOURS ACT AND WAGES . TO TUB EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN STAR . Sir , —Sir Robert Peel has . diligently studied Cocker . The right honourable baronet is a clever M'itlnnetician . Ho has not studied human nature . Cbhaequently , the late Prime Minister is not a '' safe " statesman . During the debates on the Ten Hours Factory Bill , Sir Robert : Peel-argued thus — " If you reduce the hours of . labour in factories from twelve to ten , you will necessarily reduce the wages from twelve to ten . " And then , with an air of triumph , the selfsatisfied statesman asked— "Are yoa prepared to make such an enormous reduction from the earnings of a large ¦ . portion of the working population , whose wages , even at twelve hours per day , are not more than their necessities require ? " By such sophistry many members of Parliament ^ were deluded ; nay , even now , the Economists , following
in the wake of Sir Robert Peel , rest their opposition to the Ten Hours Act on similar assertions and questions . . Fortunately , experience contradicts Cocker . Happily , facts prove the folly of Sir Robert Peel ' s philosophy . Take the . following . I record it for thcesnecial benefit of the right hon . baronet and his disciples—the Economists . .:. ' ' . My kind friend , Mr . Wm . Walker , has just placed a ' very important . document in my hands . It is the record of the wage 3 . paid by a millownor , in Bradford / for the ' working of thirty-two power looms , 'during - . tli © year . 1848 . * The tabldiia drawn up by the overlooker who superintended ; tho working-of those thirfcy-two , looms during the whole period . The speed ,, the looms , the wages per . piece , ; the quality of warp and -weft , and the workpeople were the same , and during the wholo . period ; the hands had full employment . The only difierence was the time of working , and the . amount received by the workers . ¦ : . ¦¦ ... .

Isaac Armstrong , saddlers ; ironmonger , and was attended with fatal consequences to one of the female domestics . It appeared that at ten o clock that niffhfc Mr . Armstrong ' s attention was directed to the lower part of the premises by hearing violent screams proceeding therefrom . On going to that part of the house to ascertain the cause , he found one of the females , who had beon in his employ for a period of twenty-four years , in a general blaze . Tim inmates tried all they possibly could to
extm"iiish tho flames about the unfortunate cvoatuve , and sent a messenger for tho fire engines . The brigade engines from Farring don street promptly _ attended , aiid when the fire was put out the flesh of the poor creature hur . g in shreds from her arms and other parts of the body . Mr .

FIRE AtfD DISASTROUS LOSS OF LIFE , On Wednesday nig ht , about ten o ' clock , a fire broke out at No . 57 , King William-street , in tho joint-occupation of Mr . Devereaux , a hat manufacturer , and Mr . Dewey , a tailor . Mrs . Dovereaux and four of her children were , in . the house . Two of the unfortunate inmates have been taken out of the ruins , and two others so dreadfully injured that they were taken to the hospital without nnychanca of recovery . ; It appears that the attention of Sergeant Martin , of the City ' police , was drawn to an unusual g lare of li g ht throug h the fan-light over the shop-door , and without a moment ' s delay , hs raised an alarm , and sent for the escapes and engines . . During the time
pending their arrival , tho officer exerted himself in knocking at the street door for the purpose of arousing the inmates . Whilst so employed two females and Mrs . Devereaux , and one of her daughters made their appearance at the third floor front window bewailing . in a half frantic tone their impending fate . The sergeant told them to remain for a minute or two for tlic arrival of the fire escape . The elder female however threw herself out and fell upon her head on the flagstones in front of the house , blood streaming from the wounds inflicted by the fall . Before sufficient time had elapsed to remove the poor sufferer her daughter followed , and striking in her descent the leaden gutter over the door she broke her thigh , and was most fearfully Smith
injured . She was forthwith removed to Mr . 's surgery , in Gracechurch-strect , where every thing was done for her that the nature of the case would permit of , but in such a precarious state was the unfortunate sufferer that she was obliged to betaken to the hospital , where she remains without any hopes of recovery . The escapes of the Royal Society , under tho direction of Mr . Baddelly , the inspector , arrived in less than five minutes after the alarm had been given , but unfortunately not in time to bo of tho least assistance , except to the firemen , who conveyed the hose of their engines up them . The engines of the London brigade arrived early , and there being an abundant supply of water , all the engines were
called into operation ; but m spite 01 tne vast torrents of water scattered over the flames , they continued to mount most fearfully , and it was not until nearly twelve o ' clock that the firemen could get them subdued , and not until they had broken through the roof and were ascending so high into the air as to illuminate the whole , of tho City . At the same . time the li g htning flashed most vividly , and the thunder roared so loudly that the people in tho immediate vicinity imagined that the noise was caused by some terrible explosions . ; . During the time that the fire was burning one of Mr . Devereaux ' s children made her appearance tit a lower window , and having broken the glass the child succeeded : n forcing her way partially through
the aperture , when some one residing in Mr . Hill ' s house , next door , with the aid of the police , managed to draw the poor creature through , but in doing so the flesh was horribly cut on her legs and other parts of the bod y . She was removed to the nearest surgeon ' s . The moment sufficient time had elapsed for the ruins to become cooled , the firemen and escape-men entered for the purpose of looking for the parties missing . Upon entering the third floor , a fearful picture presented itself . Near the window the blackened remains of a fine young woman , apparently about eightoen years of age , was perceived ; and near her was the body of a child about nine or ten
year s old , also fearfully burnt , The bodies were placed in blankets , and having been lowered , they were placed in shells and conveyed to the deadhouse ; where they will remain until viewed by a coroner ' s jury . How the . disaster occurred cannot . at present be accounted , for . The premises were closed between eight and nine o ' cIock when everything seemed perfectly safe . : " ¦ . The police , who have been to the hospital to inquire after the state of the sufferers , report that Mrs . Devereaux has died from the effects of ; the injuries she received . Her husband was , at , the time of the' outbreak , at Windsor on business . It is therefore impossible to tell whether or not the premises were insured . •' . '¦
Not the least , blaino can be attributable to the fire-escaperinen , for they were on the spot before any engine ,. and there is no doubt if Mrs . Devereaux and her daughter bad ' remained at the window a moment longer , neither party would have received tho'least injury . ¦'¦ • •
